Very cool.
Thanks!

Excited to see all of this. A little disappointed that we’re not learning more about matchmaking like playlist details and such. Also don’t care much about Ragnarok details since there’s already been a walkthrough of it. Still time though.

If you want that information, check out the halo thread on neogaf.

Looks like the panel is over. Nothing about Skill ranks

Ravens_Bite · October 13, 2012, 8:56pm

Could I get a link to this. NeoGAF seems to be getting a lot of traffic right now, making it hard to find it.

Nothing about ranks, and yet another BTB map. Lovely.

l_RyanW_l · October 13, 2012, 9:04pm

Summary is now up

Don’t think I can link the thread. It’s got multiplayer spoilers like the name of the last map and even some screenshots of it. I’ll PM you though.

I am more disappointed about no skill based ranks

When I read the part about the Campaign tease, I was drinking my Honest Kids juice box, and I was so excited with my mouth hanging open, and I didn’t even realize the juice was spilling on my clothes! Lol!

Drinking Juice box? SMDH You dont get XP drinking Juice Boxes. On a serious note though has there been any confirmation that the Panel was taped like most are?
